Gorgeous 7 1/2 inch high bear (beanie) issued to commemorate the 1999 Women's World Cup, won by the USA over China on penalty kicks at the Rose Bowl in Pasadena, CA. There were four different bears issued, all officially licensed by FIFA. I have called this bear "Rosie" because she is the Rose Bowl bear.

This bear is a true limited edition with only 1,999 bears being produced and each bear is individually serial numbered on the hang tag. To ensure authenticity, the hang tag also includes a serial numbered Women's World Cup hologram. There is also a FIFA WWC '99 tush tag.

"Rosie" is snow white. She has "Rose Bowl 1999" and a soccer ball on her chest and a USA flag on one arm and a China flag on the other. On her back she proudly displays the words "1999 Women's World Cup FIFA".
